EU went exactly as I thought except Showtime - Wayne, especially with Showtimes excellent results the last few weeks. Anyone know how the games played out?

In Game 1 Wayne went heavy Mutas, Showtime saw the spire building but didn't click on it, and Wayne committed heavily to Mutas and Showtime didn't ever really get enough Phoenix. Game 2 Wayne rushed hive and lurker upgrades and between abducts/ling surrounds of a few disruptors managed to run Showtime over.

Thanks for the answer, still think Showtime will make it though, but he sure does make it harder on himself

Wow super late thread. Also I'm shocked that ESL isn't even running the stream. Rotti just said it was Wardii running the stream today, the intros, outros, everything. Tomorrow is going to be Beomulf.

Damn, I guess the budget cuts are coming in from every direction.

To be fair, given how the regionals were run during the EPT era, and how proficient the creators in the scene are at online event production, the difference probably won't be too noticeable.

Vanya/Rattata/Wayne is absolutly on fire right now
Imagine Spirit vs Showtime in next round. His two victims reals feel like they don t belong in the "Mid" category

MaxPax 4-gates Blink is too good, and make me hate the build even more.

More not the best response from Clem, MaxPax has much less success doing the same thing against HeroMarine for example. Blink is a good build but not as ubiquitous as it appears
I'm just a cynical video game enjoyer who is probably unfazed by many business dealings many would find utterly distasteful, while not strictly illegal by the law as seen in a general sense in the world.

How is NA region is so bad compared to EU and KR in terms of the quality of games and player skill? Do NA players not watch the other region's tournaments? NA used to be comparable to EU. I never quite understood this. Is it due to the COVID lockdown?

While maybe this is applicable to very specific points in time, I don't think you can say this is GENERALLY true in SC2 history.

i guess i'm late to the party but do they really go with map score as the tie-breaker?

So the best of the british intruders, the Oceania scene was so afraid about, that they were ranting about them for years just got eliminated by a bunch of chinese amateurs?
I m glad at least Meomaika is doing fine. The rest of the 'scene' in that region looks completly dead now.
I honestly didn t expect that China would completly dominate the new Asia region as hard as they do, but it looks like that Asia is going to consist of Meomaika, Has, Nice and then only Chinese players

Hellraiser was doing pretty well until those Widow Mine shots. It's nice seeing someone going for double Forge instead of rushing for splash damage.

EDIT:

He's doing a good job of only losing Chargelots in these middle-of-the-map engagements. Really important.

EDIT2:

Hellraiser almost won it with his 3/3 push. It looked pretty dicey for Clem, but Hellraiser lost the momentum after Clem caught up in upgrades. The Disruptor shots just weren't there in the end. Good game though.

I hope you watched Mana vs GungFuBanda
It might give you comfort that there are lots of Mid Tier EU players that are also capable of playing FULL NA clown fiesta with throws and counter throws.

That series was wild. I really enjoyed it.
